About the Perl 6 Hackathon

The Perl 6 Hackathon is organized by the Open Days Conference organizers and Copenhagen Perl Mongers.

The hackathon is and aimed at raising some awareness around Perl 6 and to give people a chance to get some hands-on with Perl 6 assisted by the actual Perl 6 people. In addition, several of the core Perl 6 developers are planning to meet to continue work on the Rakudo Star release.

In addition to the hackathon we are running a short track of Perl talks as part of the OSD conference.

Goals

There is of course the overall goal of getting some awareness and hands-on experience with Perl 6. So no matter what you level is on Perl or Perl 6 you are most welcome. Another goal is to contribute to the Perl 6 implementation and prepare for the Rakudo Star release in April 2010.
